Great to see some of the old crew posting here again, AMD having risen from the dead yet again.

After at least a 5 year hiatus, I reinvested in AMD shortly after the Barrons article. I no longer hate Intel, in fact I'm short April 34 puts.

I did write covered calls on my AMD, but then bought lower strike calls on a dip. I never write calls unless I can get more for them than the Black Scholes "value."

For investors that use options, one should look at their trading history. I've found that buying calls or puts outright I've lost money. Call spreads have made money pretty consistently, writing puts has made money overall. Buy writes work on stocks I follow closely. But everyone's experience is different -- find out what you're good at and stick to it.
